DFR Blogger Kayla Bertagnolli spends most of her time at dog shows behind her camera. Our favorite photographer enjoys capturing those one-of-a-kind moments we all love, but getting those memorable shots is a lot harder than it looks. Find out how much luck has to do with creating those picture-perfect memories.

Senior Editor Christi McDonald takes a look at some of the shows that will take place over the Thanksgiving weekend. The “largest indoor show site in New England” will welcome exhibitors to the Eastern States Exposition Grounds in West Springfield, Mass., where one lucky winner will receive the Grace Brewin Memorial “Top Dog of the Cluster” award. Learn more about the special events planned for the 31st annual Thanksgiving Classic, as well as the offerings at the shows in Montgomery, Ala., Northern California and elsewhere in the U.S.

Many of this year’s top show dogs are featured in their own beautiful mini-websites on Best In Show Daily. Simply click on a banner ad to see the dog’s up-to-date show history, plus a slide show of photos that reveals exactly why it’s a top dog.
